[To me, as well as to many males of a certain age, not as much of a loss as Diana Rigg, whose death was reported today. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/10/obitu...e=Homepage    (paywall)

From Emma Peel (Avengers) to Olenna Tyrell (Game of Thrones) - incredible.
And there was something extremely alluring/attractive about Emma Peel, and it wasn't just her looks.

Totally. At 47, I am probably younger than you meant by “of a certain age”. But as a young teen in the mid-80s, I watched reruns of every Avengers episode after school on TV-20. (Or maybe it was UHF channel 44?) I don’t remember too many show plots, but Diana Rigg in that character was unforgettable. She didn’t just walk around in a cat-suit - she had the brains, wit and power to kick people’s arses in it.
